Laptop takes long time to bootup after adding ssd and advance BIOS is locked

[ankitrox]

Hello, I have  HP Notebook 15-da1074tx (Insyde F. 18, i5 8265u, 8GB Ram). I recently added a SSD (Samsung 980 250GB Nvme).

After adding it, my system works fine but stil i'm facing some issues such as

--->  Laptop sometimes take 4 - 5 minutes to start or boot (not windows but bios)

--->  My laptop has nvme slot which supports ""Gen3  x4"" but my ssd is working as ""Gen3 x2""

--->  My laptop bios does not provide Advanced features which really a thing i dont like, so is there any way i can unlock Advance BIOS.

Can anyone help with these issues please.

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

Firstly, perform Windows Update and HP Support Assistant: (do not skip any troubleshooting steps if you feel steps are repeating) 

To check for updates now, select the Start button, and then go to Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update, and select Check for updates.

Install updates from HP Support Assistant: Go to Download HP Support Assistant to install the tool.

1. To open HP Support Assistant, double-click the HP Support Assistant icon .
2. Click My devices in the top menu, and then click Updates in the My PC or My notebook pane.
3. Click Check for updates and messages to scan for new updates.
4. Review the list of updates. Updates with a yellow information icon are recommended. Updates with a blue information icon are optional.
5. Click the update name for a description, version number, and file size.
6. Select the box next to any updates you want to install, and then click Download and install.

And, also run BIOS Update: Follow the steps from the link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c00042629
